I disagree. If you really go intense on the diet and exercise, the beginning when you go from sedentary to balls to the wall exerciser plus clean eater/starver is exactly when you will drop weight the quickest. When you get to the point that you can no longer sustain that mentally and/or your body and metabolism adjust, that's when it gets really hard.
But then again, I'm not talking about a "magical" way to drop the weight.
OP, just keep in mind that however you do it, it's not going to be a weight loss that is sustainable and you will probably gain it back quickly. Which may be ok for you and worth it for this event. Just go in aware.
